From: Heiner Kallweit Date: Sun, 26 Nov 2023 22:01:02 +0000 (+0100) Subject: r8169: prevent potential deadlock in rtl8169_close X-Git-Tag: microblaze-v6.10~877^2~8 X-Git-Url: http://git.monstr.eu/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=91d3d149978ba7b238198dd80e4b823756aa7cfa;p=linux-2.6-microblaze.git r8169: prevent potential deadlock in rtl8169_close ndo_stop() is RTNL-protected by net core, and the worker function takes RTNL as well. Therefore we will deadlock when trying to execute a pending work synchronously. To fix this execute any pending work asynchronously. This will do no harm because netif_running() is false in ndo_stop(), and therefore the work function is effectively a no-op. However we have to ensure that no task is running or pending after rtl_remove_one(), therefore add a call to cancel_work_sync().
